What I ended up going with:
AMD Ryzen 5 1600
16gb DDR4
Radeon RX 580 4gb
500gb SSD
1tb 7200
No name clear glass case on special

Also refreshed my old rig with:
Radeon RX 570 4gb
+8GB ram
New 600watt PSU
Standard mid tower case

Getting my brother into PC gaming with me. Any recommendations on games aside from the popular titles Fortnite, PUBG etc - some "other titles" worth picking up and playing

Actually went with 8gb instead of 16 and I can see no difference. I'm also use to DDR3 ram - not DDR4 @ 2400mHz

I've read there isn't a lot of difference? I could be wrong. DDR4 was on special when I ordered everything. My old rig got a spice up too -my brother seems to be happy with it - It does the job for him. I am super impressed with the Ryzen 5
